My Trip to Paris

My Paris Trip was Perfection. After Contemplating for Weeks and Weeks about my Wardrobe and Packing for a total of 5 days Straight, I caught my flight on Air France and Landed safe and sound in Paris. I Checked myself in the Four Season’s, George V, Settled in and Awaited the magaical moments of fashion and friends that awaited me….

Hi Mrs. T. Cox,
I just discovered your blog & although I am not a wife I still love it! I find all your travels absolutley FABU! Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you! I will be taking my first trip to Paris and I hope my trip is equally alluring as yours seem to have been! It’s my life’s dream to sit at a Chanel show so if you have any tips on how an aspiring designer and lover of all things Chanel can attend, please share!

Fashionably yours,

Tomika

Hi Mrs.T. Cox,
I really enjoy your blog. Your lifestyle is really a great reflection of my taste and a lot of the same things that I enjoy (especially fashion and travelling). I wanted to invite you to check out my new blog Catch Me In Couture. I am dedicating the greater potion of my life to building my own Fashion House (and having some fashionable fun along the way). I hope you’ll join me on my journey! Take Care.
Sincerely,
The Duchess
